A Cross-Sectional Study to Evaluate the Impact of Placental Location on Maternal and Fetal Outcomes.

Background The human placenta is a critical organ for facilitating nutrient uptake, waste elimination, and gaseous exchange between the mother and the fetus. In the placenta, there are two circulations, namely, maternal and fetal. The blood supply of the placenta is not uniformly distributed as the maternal circulation, determined by uterine blood supply, depends on the implantation site.
